Yeah, let's do it.

829
00:39:54,836 --> 00:39:56,605

Let's fucking do it.

830
00:40:03,211 --> 00:40:04,343

and then...

834
00:40:14,589 --> 00:40:15,888
(CHUCKLES) I don't have--

835
00:40:15,957 --> 00:40:17,660
I don't have
very good boundaries.

836
00:40:18,159 --> 00:40:19,162

837
00:40:20,128 --> 00:40:21,425
I'm doing it now.

838
00:40:23,631 --> 00:40:26,331
Okay, so I think...

839
00:40:26,400 --> 00:40:29,772
a meaningful bump
gets you over the line.

840
00:40:30,772 --> 00:40:33,973
All right. Oh.
So you're saying...

841
00:40:34,042 --> 00:40:36,779
if I keep offering more
and more money...

842
00:40:38,179 --> 00:40:39,740
eventually, I'll get it.

843
00:40:39,809 --> 00:40:41,214
- Hmm.
- Ah.

844
00:40:41,282 --> 00:40:42,414

856
00:41:13,547 --> 00:41:16,448
I might be in a bit of a pickle.

857
00:41:16,517 --> 00:41:19,655

give you the whole backstory
and everything, but, um...

00:41:58,793 --> 00:42:01,130
I was-- I was seeing this girl,

872
00:42:01,796 --> 00:42:05,034
and, um, after we broke up...

873
00:42:06,133 --> 00:42:09,168
because of some things
that we said, uh,

874
00:42:09,237 --> 00:42:12,872
when things were nice
and intense, you know,

875
00:42:12,941 --> 00:42:17,409
as sort of a nasty,
uh, friendly joke about--

876
00:42:17,478 --> 00:42:20,716
about what I shouldn't do, um...

877
00:42:21,382 --> 00:42:22,952

- Oh, okay.
- Uh...

00:42:26,315 --> 00:42:28,552
A half-a-liter
frozen blood brick.

880
00:42:29,857 --> 00:42:33,329
- As a joke, obviously.
- Uh, half a liter?

881
00:42:34,029 --> 00:42:34,861
- Yeah.
- Wow.

882
00:42:34,930 --> 00:42:37,429
- And then--
- Well, I mean, obviously,

883
00:42:37,498 --> 00:42:40,269
- first of all, good one.
- Yeah.

884
00:42:41,203 --> 00:42:42,334
Um...

885
00:42:42,403 --> 00:42:47,941
Well, she got a bit weirded
when I did that, but I, uh...

886
00:42:48,009 --> 00:42:51,978
Um, I just kept doing it.
Again, and again, and again.

887
00:42:52,046 --> 00:42:54,783
And then, it--
it became not a joke...

00:42:55,651 --> 00:42:56,883
and then a joke again.

889
00:42:56,952 --> 00:43:01,157
And... and now, it's...
apparently not a joke.

- Yeah.

Uh, well, who is this?

893
00:43:11,032 --> 00:43:12,035
It's Ebba.

894
00:43:13,502 --> 00:43:15,735
Actually, it's, uh...

895
00:43:15,804 --> 00:43:19,775
Yeah. It's a bit--
It-- it's a bit, uh...

896
00:43:20,674 --> 00:43:24,576
- A com-- complex situation.
- Hmm.

897
00:43:24,645 --> 00:43:26,215
LUKAS: But what--
I'll-- I'll just...

898
00:43:27,248 --> 00:43:28,113
deny it, right?

00:43:28,182 --> 00:43:31,550
I'll call bullshit
and just lawyer it out.

900
00:43:31,619 --> 00:43:34,553
Oh, well, yeah.
Deniability is difficult,

901
00:43:34,621 --> 00:43:38,127
given she has so much
of your blood.

902
00:43:39,294 --> 00:43:40,296
Uh...

903
00:43:41,296 --> 00:43:42,929
Man, your head of comms?

904
00:43:42,998 --> 00:43:45,497
I don't know who you got
advising you on this,

905
00:43:45,566 --> 00:43:47,300
but whatever
they're telling you,

906
00:43:47,369 --> 00:43:48,700
you gotta 10x it.

907
00:43:48,769 --> 00:43:50,937
'Cause people, you know,
people don't know you,

908
00:43:51,005 --> 00:43:52,939

goes through,

be all over you.

dripping into an IV bag,

913
00:44:01,048 --> 00:44:03,419
and harassing
his direct reports, it's...

914
00:44:04,753 --> 00:44:06,619
it's gonna
have an economic impact.

915
00:44:06,688 --> 00:44:09,255
- It's bad.
- Well...

918
00:44:15,597 --> 00:44:17,967
Might be hard for you, but...

919
00:44:18,633 --> 00:44:21,835
stop sending people your blood.

920
00:44:21,903 --> 00:44:25,204
Uh, and then, you know,
like catch and kill maybe?

921
00:44:25,273 --> 00:44:27,674
Or just have
like a really open meeting.

922
00:44:27,743 --> 00:44:31,578
- Hmm.
- Do not-- Don't fire her.

923
00:44:31,646 --> 00:44:32,712
- No?
- Yeah, you know,

924
00:44:32,781 --> 00:44:34,546
Gerri would be good on this.
And I can--

925
00:44:34,615 --> 00:44:36,448
I can give you in--
some informal advice

926
00:44:36,517 --> 00:44:39,022

- I would like that.

927
00:44:40,255 --> 00:44:41,290

go high to get it.

we retain ATN
and we'll bite at 146.
